Abstract

Nutrition plays a major role in maternal and child health. Poor maternal  nutritional status has been related to adverse birth outcomes. Maternal nutrition is  influenced by many biologic, socioeconomic and demographic factors, which vary  widely in different populations. Major adverse birth outcomes are low birth weight, preterm birth and intrauterine growth restriction. Developing nutritional  interventions will improve birth outcomes and long-term quality of life and reduce  mortality, morbidity and health-care costs. Maternal nutrition is a modifiable risk  factor of public health importance.
